Jennifer Lawrence Set to Play as Mystique in X-Men: First Class

X-Men: First Class has an actress to play Mystique, and a very good one at that: Jennifer Lawrence, who is currently impressing the hell out of everyone who sees Winter's Bone. Amber Heard was previously said to be in talks for the role. THR says Fox has been 'furiously casting' the movie, and in addition to announcing Lawrence, confirms that Nicholas Hoult, Alice Eve, Caleb Landry Jones and Aaron Johnson are all in the cast. The report does not specify their roles, though we know Hoult is Beast and Johnson is reported to be Cyclops. Lawrence steps into the role that Rebecca Romijn played in the first three X-Men  movies.
